Chapter 1897: Sing forward

People guessed the ending, but did not guess the process: "L.A. Confidential" defeated the "Peacemaker", this is not an unexpected result; but "L.A. Secret" killed the "Peacemaker" in such a straightforward manner, Hugo Before he even did it himself, George had already succumbed without a fight? This process is really dumbfounding.

In the first week of October, the "L.A. Confidential" ushered in the challenge of "Stunning Lips (.the., or more precisely, the duel between Hugo and Morgan Freeman.

This is really a very interesting thing, first is David Fincher's "psychological game", then Hugo's "L.A. Confidential", then Morgan's "Scare Lips", and now the only thing missing is Brahman De Pitt, the "seven deadly sins" four-member group that set countless historical records two years ago will meet again.

However, compared to Hugo and Brad, Hugo and Morgan are not only without the smell of gunpowder, but they are also quite happy and harmonious. In many public occasions, Morgan has also expressed his appreciation and appreciation for Hugo many times. .

For the media, this is more like an interesting thing. The "Psychological Game" and the "L.A. Confidential" showdown, the latter won; what about the "L.A. Confidential" and "L.L.A. Secret" showdown? What will be the result? After all, this is the third week of the release of "L.A. Confidential".

"Scary Lips" and "Seven Deadly Sins" are movies of the same genre. This is also a sequelae left over two years ago: many thriller and suspense films are crowded into the autumn archives of September and October, hoping to replicate the "seven deadly sins" "The miracle. However, the investment of "Jian Lip Jie" is only 27 million. In addition to Morgan, the bright spots in the cast are also very limited. Despite this, Paramount Pictures has arranged 2,300 theaters for "Stun Lips" to be shown online, looking forward to the brilliant performance of the film.

Faced with such a battle, the excellent performance of "L.A. Confidential" in the previous two weeks gave Warner Bros. a lot of confidence. After discussing it, they actually further expanded the film. Such a strategy really surprised many people. The increase of two hundred theaters allows more audiences to enter the cinema. Judging from the movie theater attendance this past weekend, the drop in the box office of "L.A. Confidential" will once again bring surprises.

This is also true of the facts. With the additional screenings of "L.A. Confidential", it has surrendered an incredible drop of 8% for the second consecutive week and achieved a weekend box office of 27.6 million US dollars!

This not only makes "L.A. Confidential" the first work since 1997 to have a box office of more than 20 million for three consecutive weeks, and has won the "Jurassic Park 2: Lost World" and "Men in Black" did not achieve results; at the same time, "L.A. Confidential" once again surpassed the box office results of the "Seven Deadly Sins" in the same period, and continued to rank fourth in the box office rankings of the third week of film history. The top three are "Independence Day", "Tornado" and "Jurassic Park".

Who could have imagined that "L.A. Confidential" actually broke out with such a strong box office driving force. Such a suspense film that relies on plot to win has reached a height that many commercial movies can't match. This suddenly reminds people of " The "Los Angeles Times" comment, "The perfect combination of commercial film and art film."

The satisfaction of film critics' tricky appetite, even comparing it with the "Godfather", has proved that this is a work that has achieved artistic success; and the outstanding performance at the box office for three consecutive weeks has exceeded two years. The previous "seven deadly sins" also proved that this work is bound to create more success in the box office.

But even so, the weekend box office of up to 27.6 million US dollars is still jaw-dropping, which is almost beyond the peak category of a feature film, and is comparable to commercial blockbusters. The praise is reached at this moment. Has reached an unprecedented peak.

Maybe, "L.A. Confidential" after the precipitation of time, still can't compare with "Godfather", but it can definitely rank among the classics of drama movies.

Relying on the three weeks of continuous box office offensive, the cumulative box office of "L.A. Confidential" broke the 100 million threshold in one go, and reached 110 million U.S. dollars. During the same period, the cumulative box office not only easily surpassed the "Silent Lamb", but also Going beyond the "seven deadly sins" by a full seven million dollars. Although "L.A. Confidential" was slightly inferior in the box office competition at the premiere weekend, relying on its strong reputation and a more audience-friendly atmosphere, "L.A. Confidential" made full efforts to fight against the "Seven Deadly Sins". In the same period, the results achieved a full overtake.

Now, the biggest question is, in the absence of topical effects of "L.A. Confidential", can the endurance of the follow-up box office compete with the "Seven Deadly Sins"? At the beginning, the "seven deadly sins" were advancing fiercely, but they fell short at the last moment. Only a difference of five million failed to break the 200 million threshold. So, what about "L.A. Confidential" this time? Can it break the box office record of the thrilling and suspenseful movies maintained by the "seven deadly sins"? Can it achieve a zero breakthrough in the 200 million box office of a thriller and suspense movie?

As the "Los Angeles Times" said: Hugo's record will be broken by himself.

In the face of "L.A. Confidential"'s domineering side-leak box office sweeping momentum, the performance of "Scared Lips" was outstanding. The box office of the premiere weekend box office data of 13 million US dollars, if there is no "L.A. Confidential", it will be easy. To win the championship, even with the "L.A. Confidential", this achievement is even more precious under the devastating momentum of a powerful opponent, not to mention that the cost of the film is only 27 million US dollars, which is for "stunned lips." There is no doubt that it is worth celebrating.

"Fright Lip Robbery" undoubtedly occupies the runner-up position in the North American weekend box office rankings in the first week of October.

After that, "Food for the Spirit" continued its good reputation and ranked third; "The Bridegroom's stamina" should not be underestimated, occupying the position of the third place; the "Peacemaker" who retreated and retreated quickly fell to the fifth place. name. Such a list can really be said to be beyond everyone's expectations. Compared with the decadence of the "peacemaker", people are more surprised by the good combat of the two comedy films "Food for the Mind" and "The Bridegroom's Wrong Turn".

For Paramount Pictures, the strategy for this fall file is obviously the correct one. The two small-cost and high-return works of "Stunning Lips" and "The Bridegroom's Wrong Turn" are enough to make Shirley-Lan Xin Meiyu stretched.

In the second week of October that followed, there were hardly any strong new releases, only one documentary and one independent low-cost comedy film. Therefore, there were no surprises on the box office chart throughout the weekend. “L.A. Confidential” easily Dominated the rankings and became the fourth work to achieve three consecutive weekend box office titles since 1997.

The only question is, what is the specific performance of "L.A. Confidential" this week? In what manner did you win the three consecutive championships?

Maintaining the level of 2,700 theaters, "L.A. Confidential" won the box office of 22 million US dollars in three days over the weekend, a drop of only 18%, continuing its absolute strong posture and aspiring again this week. The weekend box office ranking champion, this result also made "L.A. Confidential" surpass the results of "Tornado" and "Jurassic Park" in the same period, becoming the second place in the box office of the fourth week of movie history-the championship is impressively The miracle of film history "Independence Day".

Step by step, "L.A. Confidential" is completely refreshing the record set by the "Seven Deadly Sins" in the autumn file, and has established a high standard that is almost insurmountable by latecomers.

The $22 million weekend box office was an unsolvable problem in October. After “L.A. Confidential” won three consecutive championships in the bag, “Scare Lips”, “Spiritual Food”, and “Groom” "Duo Miwan" and "Peacemaker" are still ranked second to fifth respectively.

In the list, the "Screaming Lips Tribulation" dropped only 15% the next week. This result is absolutely brilliant for the thriller and suspense movies. Paramount Pictures was overjoyed, accumulating 2,800 in two weeks. Ten thousand dollars of results have steadily crossed the cost line; in addition, "food for the mind" and "grooms go wrong" have once again surrendered a box office drop of less than 30%, and outstanding performance has become a topic of time. .

The poor "peacemaker" fell again by more than 40% this week, not only at a loss, but also on the street. The cumulative box office in three weeks has not even exceeded 25 million-5% of the cost. Ten times have not been reached, this tragedy is gradually turning into a tragedy, even Universal Pictures itself can't bear to look directly at it.

The "peacemaker" is not only the only lagging behind, but also the only frustrated, even the media can't bear to continue to fall into the trap.

Many media have expressed grievances about George Clooney's experience~www.wuxiaspot.com~ It seems that George's film career has ended, which is embarrassing. In particular, the ratings of the new season of "Emergency Room Story" are still gratifying, and George's popularity is still outstanding, which further reflects the collapse of George's film career. Such a sound of sympathy made George even more embarrassed, and it also made George dumbfounded.

It is worth mentioning that "Boojin Night" was screened in two theaters this week, with a single box office of 25,000 US dollars. It performed well, but it was not very impressive.

The follow-up performance of "L.A. Confidential" is refreshing people's cognition time and time again, and continues to advance by leaps and bounds, once again confirming the truth that excellent movies will never lack audience appreciation; and it continues to expand and "seven deadly sins" in an unstoppable manner. The gap in the box office data during the same period, and the cumulative box office in three weeks has been 143 million US dollars. Unknowingly, the movie box office can easily cross the 150 million threshold next week. It seems that all signs are showing a Fact: "L.A. Confidential" will attack what the "Seven Deadly Sins" did not do.

What is certain is that the total box office of 200 million US dollars is already beckoning to "L.A. Confidential", and now there is only the last threshold to achieve the goal: "I know what you did last summer (i...what...) Last.summer and "Devil's Spokesperson", which are also the most important, most difficult, and most difficult threshold at the same time.
